Intro
In today's Leaderboard: Notion's new AI assistant has the potential to finally give you peace at work, Spotify launched a new feature to curate bangers on demand, and a new platform is aiming to show scammers the door — but scammers are gonna scam...
Bangers all day
AI Playlist: Generate a new Spotify Playlist with a prompt
Spotify’s new AI playlist feature is the obvious next step for the hugely popular Daylist feature. The AI-generated daily playlist has for some even replaced their morning horoscope in importance. Now with Spotify's new feature, you can generate a new playlist anytime you want with just a prompt. It’s pretty cool but it kind of sucks the fun out of music discovery for me. I love stumbling on a banger by accident and playing it on repeat until I feel violently ill. I’ll probably stick with Tidal for now.
Reduce the noise
Notion AI: Notion's reimagined AI assistant with universal search
Notion’s new AI assistant is tackling a white whale of enterprise tool builders: Universal search. I love that they’re going after it, even though they’re unconventionally positioned. Slack would be a natural choice — we often ask our coworkers for links, and if SlackAI intercepts those asks and responds on our coworkers’ behalf it could reduce noise tremendously. Google Drive could be a great choice as well (and universal search may be a key component of DeepMind’s Project Astra). But it’s possible the best product, not the best-positioned product, will win here, and Notion seems to be iterating rapidly.
Your agents stopped answering and started doing
Your agents call tools, write to databases and move money, so a wrong answer is now a wrong action, which is a considerably worse meeting. Arcjet runs policy before every LLM call, tool call, query and API request: prompt injection, sensitive data, bots, rate limits, spend quotas, and your own rules in Rego on top. It reads the OpenTelemetry you already emit, so switching it on is one environment variable, no code changes and nothing to deploy. Each check also reads the earlier steps in the same workflow, so an agent's tenth action gets judged against the first nine and not on its own. JavaScript, Python and Go SDKs all at 1.0, agent framework guards included, free tier to start on.
Scammers be gone
NotCommon: A free browser extension that verifies whether websites and social media profiles are real.
If NotCommon can deliver on its sizable promise, it seems like something you’d definitely want to install on your parents’ devices to protect them from fake support scams. That said, the real time legit check feature seems helpful, as long as they keep their database up to date. (Though I’m sure scammers won’t make that an easy task.)
